About this audiobook
Diana Quincy returns with the newest novel in the Clandestine Affairs series with a steamy romance about a half-Arab marquess seeking revenge on—and falling for—London’s most famous mapmaker.
The new footman doesn’t seem to know his place…
London’s most renowned mapmaker is a woman...but nobody knows it. If anyone discovers that Rose Fleming is the power and talent behind the family business, the scandal could ruin them. Rose’s secret is tested by the arrival of a handsome new footman who shows far too much interest in his new mistress. Rose battles an intense attraction to the enigmatic servant, but maintaining a proper distance isn’t easy when you and temptation live under the same roof.
She makes him forget he has a score to settle…
Few have met the reclusive half-Arab Marquess of Brandon, who is rumored to live with a harem of beauties among his mother’s people near Jerusalem. Brandon couldn’t care less what society thinks of him, or that his fellow peers are disdainful of his common blood, but he won’t stand for being robbed. That’s why he's disguised himself as a footman in the home of a respected mapmaker who cheated Brandon out of his land. But the nobleman's plans for retribution are complicated by his growing attraction for the secretive lady of the house.
When Brandon uncovers the shocking truth about Rose’s role in his stolen birthright, can a love born of deception really conquer all?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The Marquess of Brandon has a score to settle with the mapmaker who cheated him out of his land. He poses as a footman in the man's household to search for evidence. The man's wife, the beautiful Rose, is intrigued by the new footman who doesn't seem to know his place. But she's got secrets of her own.

This book is so much fun. The characters are well developed, the world vivid, and the plot full of unexpected twists. It's smart and deeply emotional, full of sensual tension. You can't help but root for Brandon and Rose to get their HEA. The audio narration was fantastic and added to the enjoyment of the book.
